Review: Stepping onto the dance floor with confidence, the collaborative effort between techno veteran Sakro and Chicago's Max Jacobson, "Walking Into Mirrors EP," delivers a potent dose of driving rhythms and hypnotic soundscapes on Rawax. The title track opens the EP, establishing a deep, pulsating groove that locks you in from the start. Layers of synths unfold with a touch of mystery, building tension and anticipation throughout its near seven-minute runtime. This is a track built for late-night warehouses, expertly crafted for maximum impact on sound systems. "Planet Arium" takes a slightly different path, offering a more stripped-down, almost industrial feel. The rhythmic core remains relentless, but the focus here shifts to a hypnotic melody that snakes its way through the soundscape. It's a darker, more atmospheric journey, perfect for heads-down dancing. The EP closes with "Chapter 16 Remember To Go Home," a track that injects a touch of hopeful euphoria into the mix. Soaring synths and a more playful melody offer a sense of light at the end of the tunnel, a reminder of the joy of dance music even after a deep dive into techno's darker corners.
